A lot of people are disapointed by the new MGS character that Hideo Kojima has chosen to replace possibly dead Snake (Hinted by Raiden wearing Snake's bandanna as an eyepatch). I personally liked the Raiden in MGS 4 and woudn't mind playing as a cyborg like him rather than a man who cannot stand 5 minutes of combat without a syringe injection.

Do you remember your first piece of ass? Yeah? Do you remember your first blowjob? Yeah? How'd it taste?

The same will be sick. Its not going to be a conventional MGS game. Its just in the same universe. Raiden doesn't sneak around like snake anymore. I doubt that they are going to stop making the games. Snake will be back I think. But yah, Raiden was pretty badass in MGS4.

I don't think they'll stop making them either. In fact, I believe they are going to do good with this one seing how its the first MGS game to be on both Xbox 360 and PS3, also PC. The audience is definitely going to be greater. I like the new character desing for Raiden, looks even better than in 4.Raiden_MGS_Rising.jpg ( 88.88K )

i just picked up MGS4 over the weekend and i like it so far... i like how you don't have to sneak around 95% of the time like you did in the previous games... it's more open to interpretation... i'll sneak around enemies but, i'll also fight alongside militias as well to fight the enemy... i kinda let the circumstances dictate weather i sneak or not ... maybe that changes once i get further into it, i'm only at the part where i just met up with meryl... and that's all action too, no time for sneaking ... lol, nothings funner though than sneaking around in the dirt, right behind the enemy... and i mean literally, a foot behind the enemy ...

and remember, just because snake is dead doesn't mean that they won't dip into his past again like they did with MGS3... raiden may be the face of a new series of games but, he'll never be the face of metal gear solid...

Oh, good one. The "you're on the internet so you must have no life" insult isn't moronic or unoriginal at all. You must, without a doubt, be a very important member of society, not at all a waste of the already barely valuable gift of life.

As is the case for everyone who takes issue with people who make them sad on the internet, you are one of two kinds of people:

You are exactly what you claim I am, and that is a lonely, pathetic basement dweller. You life is spent eating eight pounds of junk food per day, masturbating to anything you find online that's even remotely feminine, and wishing you had good looks and social skills. You continue to live with your mother until she dies of a combination of lung cancer and liver failure brought on by the chain-smoking and heavy drinking she used to cope with what a failure you are. Your mother mercifully dead and free of the living embodiment of failure she regretfully thrust from her loins, the bills start to pile up and you, unemployed and unable to pay these bills (of course), lose the house and everything in it. Somehow even more of a failure than you already were, you wander from place to place eating out of dumpsters and sleeping in your own filth until you finally die of AIDS, which you contracted from a diseased whore you scrounged up enough money to pay for, so you could finally lose your virginity while at the same time pretending that your mother was back in your life.

Or:

You are the type who was an athlete in high school, who was genetically doomed to be an idiot but managed to finish school and even get a college scholarship because you were so good at a worthless children's game. You went off to college with a suitcase full of polo shirts and condoms, the polo shirts, because you're a douche, and the condoms to prevent you from impregnating the dim-witted young college girls whom you could never touch without the aid of Rohypnol, a drug you refer to as "roofies" because you can neither spell or pronounce Rohypnol. You scrape by with borderline D's for the next four years, and leave the campus to go out into the real world where your realize you're not intelligent or talented enough to do anything of value with your life. Misery and minimum wage ensues for thirty years, then you blow your brains out, and your corpse, alone and forgotten, is not discovered until the smell of rotting flesh seeps under your door and your bodily fluids finally soak through the floor of your studio apartment and into the room below you. Your body is cremated, the ashes scraped into a garbage bin because there was no one in your life who valued you enough to pay for a casket, funeral, or burial plot.

You're undoubtedly one of the two, otherwise you would have better things to do than complain about the theme of a forum that doesn't care about anything you have to say.

On harder difficulties, sneaking around is more necessary. Other parts of games it is too. The 1st part is really action packed.
